Landing and caring for the Tuya in the garden plot. Western Tui Western Tui Variety Review

Thuya is one of the most popular decorative garden crops. It is widely used in landscape design. The undoubted advantages of the plant in the eyes of the gardener - unpretentiousness, cold resistance, the ability to successfully adapt to the not always favorable climate and put up with separate errors in care. Selectors have a lot of varieties, including dwarfs. Place for such a culture will be found on any garden plotIn addition, landing and caring for the Thay do not require titanic efforts.

What does thuya look like

Thuja, she "tree of life" or "Northern White Cedar" - a long-term coniferous plant related to the family of cypress. The genus is a few, it includes only five species. Natural area of \u200b\u200bher habitat is North America and East Asia. In nature, the height of the tree can reach 15-20 m, and the diameter of the barrel is meter and more. There are also 70 meter giants with a girth of about 6 m. But in the brought by the breeding way of the thu, which are most often grown in garden sites, the dimensions are much more modest. This is a long-lived tree, 100-150 years old for him is not the limit.

Natural Tui - Real Giants, Copies are known at the age of five hundred years and more

The name of the famous Swedish botanist and Karl Linney systematizer gave the name. It comes from the Greek "sacrificing." Wood Tui used to be widely used for ritual bonfires, inevitable due to the characteristic pleasant fragrance.

The crown has a very dense, pyramidal or rounded, dark-green needles, reminds lying flavored scales. She is soft, practically does not ourselves. Waste is lighter than the front side. In winter, some varieties of needles are brown. For the plant, this is the norm, and not some kind of exotic disease.

The needles at the Tui consists of small scales, it resembles a fern leaves with something

The root system of the Tui is well developed, but superficial, so the soil in the attractive circle is often slightly extended. The bark in young plants smooth, brilliant, reddish-brown. With age, it gradually heat and begins to move wide stripes.

The bark in adult tui is often peeled with whole wide ribbons, for the plant it is normal

Flowers of linomes and dull-red or brick cones of Tui hidden in a thick crown. And some breeding varieties do not bloom at all. For all the thu, the light recognizable "cypress" flavor is characteristic. From the cones do essential oil with similar smell. It increases the total tone of the body, helps to quickly restore the strength, increase the stress resistance and endurance to physical exertion, contributes to the concentration of attention. It is useful for the treatment of many skin diseases.

Tui bloom often passes almost imperceptibly

Tuya very well tolerates the haircut and keeps the form, since the growth rate is no different. That is why culture is so loved by landscape designers. The simplest solution is to form live hedge From Tui. No less effectively plant looks in single and group landings. Miniature varieties are used in rocories, mountaineering and "Japanese gardens". But it's not worth overdoing. Thuja in Russia is still exotic, it strongly stands out against the background of the local flora. Excess trees and shrubs in the garden plot creates a gloomy atmosphere.

Thuya looks very attractive, both in single landings and compositions

Culture prefers a well-heated plots or at least halftime. In the shadow of Tui "Lysset". Winds and drafts Plant is not afraid, it can be safely planted in open places. It also loves coolness - long droughts and the heat of Tuya is not very good. But the plant puts up with an unfavorable environmental situation, air gas. Such requirements for cultivation conditions with a very high frost resistance (at -35-40 ° C) allow you to cultivate the Tui for most of Russia, including in the regions with a sharply continental climate. The most cold-rescue western, it is precisely it is the basis for most of the experiments of breeders.

Living fence from the Tui is very easy to maintain it in proper condition, too easy

Tyu are often confused with other decorative plant - Juniper. But if you look attentively, you can find a lot of differences.

Table: how to distinguish and juniper

Criterion	Tuya
Requirements for growing conditions	Well tolerates the baked air, dust, smoke. Negative refers to drought	Drought-resistant, dust and gaspace does not tolerate
Root system	Developed but superficial	Very powerful, rod root goes into the soil of 10 m and more
Form of the crown	Depends on the variety - may be round, and pyramidal, and spontaneous	Spicy, pretty "loose" shrub
Needles	Soft, consisting of individual scales. Color varies depending on the variety	Hard sharp spines resembling awl. Painted in "Smoky" bluish-green color
Fruit	Small reddish brown cones	SIZO-Violet or bluish berries, sometimes with red sweat

If you look closely, then the juniper has almost nothing in common

Sorts grown in garden sites

Preparatory procedures and landing in open ground

The requirements for cultivation conditions at the Tui are not so much. Considering that this is a long-lived plant, a place for disembarking should be chosen deliberately. To transfer somewhere adult tree, then it is unlikely to succeed, even though the root system is superficial.

In order for the thuly in the best manner showed her decorativeness, she needs the sun. Some varieties with yellow or pystride cheese in the shade even lose an unusual shade, "fading" to the green. Winds and drafts The tree is not afraid, so it can be safely planted in open areas. Uniform illumination contributes to the formation of a symmetrical thick crown.

The sun's sun is needed, but it is advisable for her to provide easy half

Nevertheless, it is still desirable to provide Tui light half, especially during periods when the sun is most actively. Long stay under the right rays can cause dehydration, which, in turn, significantly reduces the frost resistance of the plant.

To the quality of soil special requirements There is no Tui. If there is a choice, it will prefer the nutritious substrate with good aeration. But the tree successfully carries out on the "poor" sandy soils, and on the "heavy" clay, and even practically in a swamp. It is desirable that the soil is weakly acid. To achieve this, fresh sawdust of coniferous trees, peat, and several citric acid crystals or a pair of apple acid crystals or a couple of droplets of apple acid can be added to the soil when planting.

It is necessary to take into account the nearest "neighbors". Tuyu is quite suitable "Company" of other coniferous trees, spiries, acacia, hydrangea. But, for some reason, she does not like peonies and asters.

It is not known why, but with peonies, the thuu gets very bad

Very important quality of planting material. It is advisable to purchase thui with a closed root system, in pots or containers. When transplanting into the ground, such plants are experiencing less stress. Healthy copies of the needles are bright, glossy, saturated color, and there are no spots and damage on the crust suspiciously reminiscent of mold or rot. Roots should not be visible - neither drainage holesnor on the surface of the earth. If this is not the case, Tuya is in a pot already too long, which is harmful to the plant.

High-quality planting material is coming up in a new location faster and easier

In regions with harsh winters, which often occur much earlier than the calendar is provided, the Tui land in the spring, from the end of April to mid-May. This will give the plant the opportunity to adapt to the new habitat and ensure itself a supply of nutrients for the upcoming wintering. In areas with the subtropical climate, the procedure can be postponed on autumn. In order to take care, Tue is enough for 2-2.5 months to the first frosts.

The landing pit is always prepared in advance. Ideally, it needs to be done in the fall, if it didn't work out - at least 2-3 weeks before the planned landing. Its width and diameter should be 35-50 cm exceed the dimensions of the earth coma in the container. At the bottom, a layer of drainage is required. Just a bucket of pebbles, rubble, ceramisit, small ceramic shards.

At the bottom of the landing pit for the Tui, a layer of drainage is obligatory so that the water is not stood at the roots

The upper 10-15 cm of the substrate extracted from the pit is mixed with 20-25 liters of humid or overworked compost, 5-7 liters of large sand and peat crumbs are added. From fertilizers you can make sifted wood ashes and dolomite flour (300-400 g per pit) - they will provide a plant with phosphorus, potassium and calcium. This mixture is poured onto the bottom of the pit, forming a small hollyk. Then it will need to cover with something waterproof so that the nutrients do not flip out of the soil.

Humidiation - Natural Remedy for improving soil fertility

When disembarking at the same time several tuy, the interval between plants varies from 1-1.5 m to 5-7 m. It depends on the size of the plant itself of a particular variety and configuration of the planned landscape composition. If the formation of a living hedge is planned, 50-70 cm is enough. Tui need to "move away" from other powerful trees and shrubs at least 3 m. They will not solve "competition" for food, obtained from the soil, due to the less developed root system.

When forming a living hedge of Tui planted quite closely

The attitude of the Tui into the soil is not different. It is similar to the same procedure for any fruit trees and berry shrubs. It is able to cope with even an inexperienced gardener.

3-4 hours before the landing, the seedling in the container is abundantly watered - it will be easier to remove it from the tank. Some gardeners use no clean water temperature for this, but a bright pink potassium permanganate solution or any fungicide of biological origin - for disinfection and prevention of the development of fungal diseases. And the biostimulator will help the plant minimize stress from transplant, will have a positive effect on his immunite. You can use both purchased drugs (epin, heteroaceuxin, corneumine) and folk remedies (aloe juice, diluted honey, succinic acid).
At the top of the land hilly in the landing pit make a small deepening. The plant is removed from the container, trying to preserve the integrity of the soil coma on the roots. Thus tolerate into the pit, it is started to fall asleep with small portions of the soil. It is desirable to use a mixture of fertile rod, humid and sand in a 3: 2: 1 proportion. Periodically, it is compacted to avoid the appearance of "air pockets". When the pit is filled to the edge, the root neck of the plant should be just at the level of the ground.
Landshed abundantly watered, consuming 25-30 liters of water. If the seedlock was enough overseas, it will be necessary for a support, about 30-40 cm high (taking into account the depth of the pit). It is worth taking care in advance, and not to stick into the ground after disembarking. Otherwise it is very easy to damage root system.
Approximately half an hour after irrigation, the rolling circle with a diameter of 50-60 cm is mulched, falling asleep to peat crumbs, small pieces of bark or sinters, creating a layer with a thickness of 5-7 cm. It will help keep moisture in the soil and will not give exist weeds. Mulch should not close the base of the barrel and the lower branches - they can start bone and rot.
Only planted Tui is very demanding of watering. During the first month, the soil must be moisturized at least once a week. The next day, the soil in the rhytholic circle loosened to a depth of 5-7 cm. While the plants do not fit in a new place, it is desirable to cover them in the hottest midday watches. sun ray.

There is nothing complicated in the landing of a saplau in the soil

After landing Tui in open sad Caring for her forces even novice gardener. In essence, it comes down to maintaining the soil in a rolling circle clean, regular irrigation, annual fertilizer and trimming of the plant. Loose, ideally, you need to spend after each watering. At the same time, it is necessary to be very neat and not to delve into the soil more than 8-10 cm, otherwise there is a chance to damage the roots.

Pruning is necessary for almost all varieties. Although now there are also such that they are taken and maintained by a convexer-plated breeder without any additional effort from the gardener.

The first time is cut off at the beginning of the second or third season of stay in the open soil. The tips of young shoots are shortened by 4-5 cm, stimulating more intense branching. A year later, you can start forming the crown. Get rid of branches growing down, deep into the branches, clearly knocking out the desired contour.

Approve the required configuration to the tree, in the future it only supports that it is not much difficulty, because the growth rate most of the Tui varieties is not different. Using trimming, you can adjust the height of the tree.

Tui bushes can be given any, the most fantastic forms

The plant is very good to the procedure, but still not too much to zeal. At once, they remove no more than a third of the greenery. Pruning can be carried out several times a year. The main volume of work in this case is usually left for autumn or end of summer. In the spring, there is a sanitary trimming, getting rid of frozen or broken down the snow of the snow. The plus temperature should be standing on the street. You still need to have time before "wake up" growth kidneys.

After trimming, the thua is rapidly restored

The tool is used only sharply sharpened and disinfected. Sections are made by one mp3ge, not "peeling" wood. The "wounds" are washed with 2% solution of copper sulfate, sprinkled with twisted chalk or wood ash and smeared the garden.

For trimming, only a carefully prepared tool is used

Thuya - moisture-up culture. During the first month after landing in the ground, it is poured at least once a week, spending on the plant 15-20 liters of water. If there is a heat on the street and there are no precipitation, the intervals are reduced to 2-4 days. Drought she tolerates badly - the shoots of nicorate, the needle loses the tone, may even get yellow.

Adult copies are enough to water every 10-15 days, if the weather is optimal for the plant. The norm varies from 5-10 liters (for the miniature shrubs) to 50-70 l (for large-sized trees). The deficiency of moisture is evidenced by the yellowed needles on the top of the plant.

Thuja is a moisture-loving plant, but the zeros of the soil in the roots does not tolerate categorically

Watering spend early in the morning or late in the evening, when the sun is no longer visible. In summer, the water temperature should roughly coincide with the air temperature. The plant loves sprinkling very much. If it is organized, there is no technical capabilities, the krona of the car is periodically poured with water from watering can or hose. After such a procedure, the plant "comes to life" literally in the eyes, starting to distribute the characteristic fragrance. The needles, with which dust and dirt are washed, looks much more or more decorative, the process of photosynthesis is more active.

Sprinkling and sprinkling Tuya refers very positive

Since the second half of September, watering is gradually reduced, by the 20th of October, which is noted. This is the necessary part of the preparation of the tree to wintering. Spraying can be held longer, stopping only 2-3 weeks to expected freezers.

If necessary, after irrigation, update the mulch layer. It helps to keep moisture in the soil and effectively prevents the tilting circle of weeds.

Fertilizers begin to depose from the second season in the open soil. Just once, at the end of April or in early May. The soil by this time pulls off at a depth of 8-10 cm, the threat of return spring frosts is minimized. Special stores are used for coniferous trees. As part must be nitrogen.

Tyuin feed with special fertilizers for coniferous trees

More frequent tui feeding stimulates its active growth. Accordingly, the configuration of the crown is violated, more time will have to devote pruning. Once every 2-3 years in the process of loosening in the spring, it is possible to plug up or overwhelming compost - 4-5 l per m² of the rolling circle.

Video: Important nuances of coniferous trees in the garden plot

Young plants under the age of five must be hidden for the winter, especially if Tui is grown in the Urals or Siberia. But it is better to progress, defending and adults, if winter is predicted very harsh and low-speed. The priority circle is cleaned from vegetable debris, loose, update the mulch layer. To the base of the barrel, humid, mixed with peat crumbs. It is necessary to protect the roots from the freezing.

As a rule, only young things need to be protected from cold

When the dimensions of the plants allow, the thui covers cardboard boxes Suitable size, stuffing them with pages of newsprint, wood chips, straw, sawdust. The branches can be tied up to the bottom so that the krone is not so empty. The smallest bushes simply throw up a snack or failed foliage.

Over larger copies, something like a slag is built. For the supports installed by the "house", the supports stretch several layers of burlap or any air-permeable underfloor material. Studitically not suitable polyethylene film and any synthetics. Then the resulting design is tied with twine. Remove it in the spring when a positive temperature is established.

Adult Tui also need protection, especially if the harsh is expected to be severely snowy winter

Tui branches are very careful, keeping it configuration

Tui branches can break under the weight of snow, especially wet. During the winter it is necessary to raise periodically, reducing the load.

At the end of winter and early spring, the sun begins to show activity. At this time, the unlucky thuja can get enough serious burns. To avoid this, it is protected by the same underfloor material. There is also a special PURSHATE preparation that protects it from burns. When spraying on a housing, it forms a thin film that prevents the evaporation of moisture.

Possible problems in growing

Immunity at the Tui is quite good, with due care, it suffers from diseases and pests is extremely rare. In addition, many insects scare off a characteristic coniferous fragrance. But there is, unfortunately, exceptions. Thuja can be subjected to attacks of shields, a cypress tree, a spider tick, tower.

As a rule, in order to scare the pests, fairly folk remedies. Trees and shrubs are periodically sprayed with an infusion of onion or garlic casher, these same plants can be planted nearby. At least once a month of the Tui, it is useful to handle foam of a ternary, green potash or economic soap. It spray the crown, leave for 30-40 minutes, then wash off from the watering can or hose.

In order to scare away from the landing of adults of the tower moth, the plants spray with an etobacterin, lepyocydom, betoccascotin. To combat its caterpillars and with Tli, any general insecticides (Inta-Vir, Fury, confident Maxi, Admiral) are suitable. The shields are destroyed using Aktara, Fufanon, Fosbecide. Antona, Apollo, Sanmight, Vestimen, are effective against the pawriter tick.

What did the attacking pests look like: photo

The shield reliably protects the durable shell, so the folk remedies in the fight against it are ineffective, it is necessary to immediately apply chemicals TLL - one of the most "omnivorous" garden pestseven a sharp aroma of conifers of the car can not scare it Under the defeat by the spider tick of the needle of the thuu, the thin, almost translucent threads resembling a web The main harm to plants causes terry moth larvae, but this does not mean that with adult individuals do not need to fight

Of fungal diseases, fusariosis, cytospose, brown spider are the greatest danger to the Tui. To avoid infection, several potassium permanganate crystals are periodically added to water for watering, staining it in a pale pink color. To the base of the barrel, pushed chalk or sifted wood ash. In the spring of the first looser of the soil in the ground, the granules of tripides, glyocladin contribute.

Finding characteristic symptoms, fungicides are used to care for the diseases. It is advisable to use drugs of biological origin (Alin-B, Baikal, Tiovit-Jet, strobe). They are not dangerous to human health and the surrounding natural environment. As a rule, if the disease is seen on time, it is enough 3-4 treatments with an interval of 5-7 days.

The Thuja affected by fusarium seems to be faded without visible reasons Cytospose is dangerous fungal disease, it is most likely not killing, but her decorative will decrease sharply Brown spider - a specific disease of coniferous trees

Thuja grown in the garden plot often turns yellow. Thus, it testifies to the gardener on its defined mistakes. Most often, the cause is the wrong landing (the root cervix is \u200b\u200bblunting into the soil or, on the contrary, he strongly protrudes from her), solar burns or too meager watering.

One of the most popular coniferous decorative trees is Tuya. This is an evergreen tree or a shrub that belongs to the family of cypress. This family also includes such widespread coniferous plantslike cypress ,. Young Tui have needle cheese. The needles possess a light green tint. Adults have a scratched foliage, the color is darker. A tree can develop almost up to 100 years.

Most varieties are resistant to frost. Color gamas of the thuu diverse depending on the varieties. For example, a tree is blue, as well as yellowish. There are high three-meter thui, as well as dwarf shrubs.

Western Tuya enjoys the greatest popularity in Russia.

Western Thuja: description and varieties

Western Thuja is a view. It can grow up to 20 meters, but in Russia, the Western Tuya rarely grows above 7 meters. Forms Croons are:

Spheroid.

Grown a large number of varieties western Tui. Among them are such common varieties: Smaragd, Bartant, Danika, Column and others. However, some amateur gardeners look out on horticultural counters less popular, but no less unusual varieties. Below are the most common varieties with photos. Often, gardeners and landscape designers, deciding to plant them, wonder: "What better to put in the country?"

Degrat Spire - grade for lovers

Degrat Spire - Large variety of Western Tui. It has a unique colonum shape, has a narrow and straight crown and is considered the most narrow among colonum species. The height of this culture is up to 3 meters. Degrat Spire is widespread in the West.

This tree is the perfect option for landscape design and landscaping. For example, Degrat Spire will help equip any elevation, even if it is height reaches 5 meters. High, but a thin green wall will not take a lot of space on the plot.

Tuya Western Degroot Spire ("Degrat Spire").

Degrat Spire has such advantages as frost resistance and undemanding for soil conditions. Sress the tree is better in those places that are well illuminated by the solar rays. The shadow makes the crown more loose. Ideal soil for growing this variety is a combination of the following components:

Sand;
Peat;
Leaves.

For watering is enough one bucket of water. Watering regular - once a week. In the spring tree feed. Soil is required to periodically mulch and loose. In the spring period, the tree is covered to avoid burns of sun rays. For the winter period, the crown is required to pull the ribbon so that the wet snow does not damage the crown.

Holmstrup - Beauty from Denmark

Hollestrup is an evergreen shrub. The shape of the crown is coloniary. Adult tree Grow up to 4 meters in height. Crown color - rich green. In winter periods, the color of the needle does not change. The needles of shrubs is distinguished by a dense, represents scales.

Thuja Holmstrup (Holmstrup).

This variety is resistant to frosts, shadowless and well tolerate windy weather. Shrub does not require high soil fertility. This shrub is an excellent option for Russia. It is best to plant it in places well lit by sunlight. Either it is worth choosing not too shaded places.

Shrub is an excellent choice for landing by groups or alone. Live hedges are rarely created with Holmstrup.

Fastigiat - valuable grade for experienced gardeners

One of the varieties of narrow-shaped thuu is Fastigiat. This varietal variety was first grown in Germany. Adult tree grows up to 12 meters in height. Grows very quickly. Visually is like a cypress. The wood needles is characterized by soft and pleasant aroma. The bumps are small.

Thuja Western Fastigiata (Fastigiat).

This grade loves the sun and prefers fertile soil. In the spring, young seedlings are desirable to cover so that the spring sun does not damage them. To improve the structure of the soil, it is mounted. For mulching uses bevelled grass. In the winter time, a napnik is used for mulching. The bacnik prevents the reproduction of mice.

With the help of Fastigiats often form living hedges. They are not only beautiful, but also do not occupy a lot of space. The varietal variety is not afraid of decorative haircuts. Designers use a tree in large landscaped compositions, use it in group landings. It is perfectly combined with a variety of colors and shrubs.

Yellow varieties of Tui Western

Specialists who are engaged in breeding and growing decorative varieties Tui, advise landing dwarf varieties on sites, with poor soil. This must be done so that they do not strive to grow up, and did not lose their familiar shape.

Correct plant selection

To achieve as a better decorative effect, you need to carefully approach the choice of a dwarf car that will grow in the garden. To begin with, experts advise to take into account all the features of the region, and the parameters of the site on which the shrub will be planted (soil and solar lighting).

When choosing a variety of a dwarf teu, you need to consider the following nuances:

Endurance to shady places;
Resistance to strong freezers;
Demand in terms of care;

Before buying a dwarf, it is necessary to pay attention to its appearance. After all, if you buy a plant with defects, in the future it will often hurt and will not be able to perform its main task - decorative decoration of the site.

What should pay attention to when buying a shrub:

The casualties of the root system -the integrity of the land coma on the root system provides protection against the negative effects of low or high temperatures, as well as many other external factors. In addition, you should pay attention to the degree of development of the same root system. If the roots are chopped, the plant with a high probability does not fit at all;
Roots and trunk - The visual assessment of the state of the seedling consists in assessing its dryness. If the upper layers of the dwarf car will be peeling and peeling, then most likely such a shrub will die;
Crown - Attentive inspection of the crown and trunk will help in a timely manner to determine the presence of any deviations at a seedling (the presence of diseases or pests). It is immediately clear that to buy an unhealthy seedling of the undepair is not from the best, because there is no guarantee that it is successfully attached;

Landing a low grade

For landing a dwarf teu, there are no restrictions about the season, but according to experts, the best period for landing Tui is autumn or early spring. If you follow this advice, the shrub will grow stronger and resistant to environmental impact.

During the landing of the Tui, the root neck must be at the same level with the soil, it cannot be immersed too deeply, but also raise the above soil just as undesirable, it can end the disease of the plant.

If there are plots with stagnant water (rain rainfalls or melting snow), it is necessary to create a kind of drainage to prevent root rotting (at the bottom of the landing jama). To create a high-quality alley from the Tui, the Tui landing distance should be 1-2 meters.

In the case of landing of dwarf tui as a living hedge in one next, it is necessary to observe the distance of about 1 meter (but more accurate measurements, it is necessary to make a finite shrub size).

Growing conditions

The positive feature of the dwarf teu is considered to be its ability to take root on any soil: it can be sand, and clay and even turne;
Little shrubs feel better in the soil with a fairly good layer of humus, and a weakly acidic reaction;
Good growth rates, low shrubs are demonstrated on the sunny or in a shady place. In the shade, they are better not to plant, as the needles will be rare and thua will lose their lush shape and greens;
The location of the Tui localization should be selected on the place where the sun will not shine all day. Shrub does not like drought very much;
Tuya positively refers to the wet soil. But it is not necessary to plant them in areas with an abundant accumulation of groundwater. In addition, the thuja tolerates drought quite well, and during a long dry period, it is enough to spend 2-3 irrigation a week in the form of sprinkling so that the needles do not lose their decorative beauty;
Tui dwarf varieties can be planted both in the open ground and in the pot.

Care for shrub

The main ways to care for the dwarf thay are considered timely and clearly organized watering. Within 1 month after disembarking in the ground, you need to water at least 1 time per week, bringing about 10 liters of water. If there is arid weather on the street, the amount of irrigation increases to two.

Maintaining the normal level of soil moisture is one of the main conditions that provides a luxurious and magnificent crown at the Tui. Throughout the first three years after disembarking, it is necessary to regularly loose land near the trunk, but not too deep (no more than 10 centimeters) so as not to damage the root system, which is located almost on the surface.

For mulching dwarf thu, it is better to use peat or sawdust (a layer of about 6-7 centimeters). To prevent damage to the crown in winter, when heavy snowfalls may occur, it is necessary to bind low shrubs.

When spring warming comes, the young buzzes are best placed in the shadow to reduce the effect of sunlight to avoid burns on the needles.

To trim an adult shrub, advise the use of acute secateurs. Pruning is subject to no more than 1/3 of the plant.

Diseases and possible pests

Thuja rarely suffers from various diseases, unlike other plant species, but in some cases an unexpected yellowing needle may occur. This feature may have several reasons:

Violation of the landing rules is an insufficient or reduction dive of the root system into the soil;
Burns from frequent influence of sun rays;
Beafeit's damage to a fungal disease.
